LIFE TODAY IS.....

red grass, grey skies.
sick people, sad goodbyes.
dark days, empty nights.
dying people, violent fights.
frightened kids, scared moms.
divorced parents, lost bonds.
starving children, bloodthirsty thugs.
innocent victims, kids with drugs.
devil worshippers, constant crime.
shot of a gun, nothing's fine.

careless adults, confused youth.
countless faults, child abuse.
selling drugs, peer pressure.
spreading AIDS, prostitute pleasure.
daily abductions, victims of rape.
so much pain, few ever escape.

turning to suicide, ending the life.
psycho pathkillers, blade of a knife.
agony of loss, a broken heart.
painful love, being ripped apart.
homeless people, the joy of hurting.
a love's child, so many uncertain.
pregnant teens, unstoppable STDs.
ashamed heritage, so many wannabes.
sibling hatered, dangerous obssessions.
optionated critics, devastating suggestions.

killing family, betraying friends.
as lust begins, honesty ends...
hopeless tomorrow, doubtful future.
destroying the mind, sickening humour.
neverending illness, too much disease.

can it stop ever? someone tell me please!!

animal-like torture, alone a new-born cry.
abandoned infants, left to die.
sleeping around, simply for lust.
decietful fellows, losing all trust.
breaking the laws, getting away.
courtroom injustice, its the victims who pay!!

who's wrong? who's right?
criminals admired, have we lost sight!?!

broken families, few who pray.
the ugliest outlook coming-off each day
forgotten morals, money-hungry fools.
disgraceful greed, all befriend to use!!

so many questions, such few answers
waiting to know, but all happens much faster
when did it happen? how did it start?
who's to blame for letting our world fall apart!?!?
